内容記述 | In Willa Cather's The Professor's House (1925), the author describes an inner conflict of a fifty-two-year-old professor. St. Peter, the professor, watches internal world of various people as if he looks into mirrors. In this novel,St. Peter searches for what he wants to be and recognizes what he must be in his own way of thinking. This essay aims to explore the significance of life after one's prime years or a certain success for St. Peter and for Willa Cather. St. Peter always feels like acting a social role as a father and a successful scholar while holding an instinvtive self. While his family are materialistic, he hates materialism and commercialism, and identitifies himself with his late student, Tom, who purely esteemed academic products and didn't want money. St. Peter thinks that Tom embodies an ideal way of life for him. However, Tom dies young and the relics of an ancient Indian civilization which Tom finds are not evaluated by an official Indian committee in America. On the other hand, St. Peter's academic book gains prize money which satisfies his family's materialistic desire and brings a new house for them. That is, St. Peter cannot escape from materialistic American society even though he wants to believe the autonomy of scholarship which has nothing to do with consumerism and tries to search what his instinctive self wants. When he is saved by a housekeeper, Augusta, from gas poisoning, he finally identifies himself with abstemious Augusta who lives for others and has a religious mind. As a person of old age, St. Peter accepts his social self and to live in his a contemporary materialistic American society. |
